Azure NotificationHub push notification doesn't work for Android 8.0 API 26

Question

I implemented Azure NotificationHub push notification. I tested for a couple of devices.

It works on these devices:

But no push notification is received on a Samsung S9 phone running Android 8.0.0 (API 26)

What could be wrong with the Samsung S9?

Check if the battery optimization is not allowing the application to run in the background — Ziad Akiki, Sep 29 '18 at 11:45

Starting with Android 8, notification requires a NotificationChannel to be shown. The Azure NotificationHub tutorial does not mention NotificationChannels. See also: Notification not showing in Oreo

What does that mean "a NotificationChannel to be shown"? – Gerry Mar 07 '19 at 19:18
you must create a Notification Channel, otherwise the notification will not be shown – atarasenko Mar 07 '19 at 20:34
